Heavy machine gun "Kord" was created at the Kovrov plant them. Degtyareva (DMRs) in the 1990s to replace the armament in Russia and NSVT machine gun NSV. The name "Cord" comes from the phrase "Design gunsmiths - Degtyarevtsev." The main reason for the development of machine gun Cord was the fact that the production of machine guns NCW after the collapse of the Soviet Union was on the territory of Kazakhstan. In addition, when you create Korda aim was to improve shooting accuracy compared to NSV-12.7. The new gun was the index 6P50 and was adopted by the Russian army in 1997. Series production at the plant deployed DMRs in 2001. Currently guns cord used both as a support for infantry weapons, and that mounted on armored vehicles, particularly tanks for T-90. In addition, due to the compatibility of machine guns and Cord NSV / NSVT on attachment to the installation, you may replace worn out on the technique of machine gun NSVT new Cord without any modifications to the settings.

Heavy machine gun "Kord" uses the vapor-automatic long stroke gas piston located under the barrel. Quick Change Barrel machine gun, air-cooled machine guns on the new releases fitted with an effective muzzle brake. Locking barrel by turning the bolt. The design of the machine gun has a special buffer moving parts, combined with a muzzle brake significantly reduces peak recoil when firing. Shooting is conducted with an open shutter. Dining patrons - from nerassypnoy metal strip with an open (not closed) element of the NSV. The tape is assembled from pieces of 10 units with the help of the cartridge. Submission of tape cartridges - directly into the barrel. Staffing tape direction - right to left, but it can easily be reversed.
Because the controls on the body of the machine gun has only the trigger and manual safety. Controls fire located on the machine or installation. In the infantry version, they include fixed on the machine cradle 6T7 pistol grip with a trigger mechanism and cocking the shutter. Advanced infantry machine is equipped with a folding stock with built-in spring buffer recoil. Especially for gun Cord also developed a lightweight machine 6T19, representing a machine cradle 6T7 with control fire, which instead of a tripod mounted front light bipod. In this embodiment, the gun can carry for short distances on the battlefield one soldier and used virtually anywhere, including the roofs of buildings, window frames, etc. Of course, when shooting with machine 6T19 effective range markedly reduced, but it is intended to either close combat or as "emergency" option for armored vehicles, allowing you to quickly convert "tank" gun in the infantry in the event of a tank failure. The anti-aircraft machine gun variant Cord can be used with a special anti-aircraft machine gun 6U6. Kord machine gun equipped with open sighting device, and can also be used with a variety of day and night sights, which it has the appropriate bracket to the receiver.





Accuracy of the fight (R50) at a distance of 100 m, not more than 300 mm



Main ammunition claimed DMRs - B-32 and BZT. At the same time, obviously gun may use cartridges MDZ and the BS (BS-41). The latter has a bullet with a tungsten core, which significantly improves the armor penetration. If the bullet B-32 breaks of 20 mm steel with 100 meters, the bullet cartridges BS and BS-41 is doing the same from a distance of 750 m.
